How it is priced
Every job is quoted in writing from your drawings or brief before any work starts. The quote is a fixed price in Australian dollars, with the scope and the files you receive, and the delivery date is agreed in the quote. There are no prices on this website because every job is different.
Steady work? A monthly arrangement has a fixed monthly fee, quoted for your volume.
Limits
- Drawn as the source shows. Where it is unclear, the item goes on the list to confirm.
- We redraw and draft. We do not design.
- Drawings are not for a building permit unless a registered practitioner reviews and adopts them.
Questions
Which CAD file formats do you deliver?
DWG or DXF, with PDF plots. Say which file version your office uses and the files are saved to it.
Can you follow our layer standard?
Yes. Send your template or standard, and the drawings follow it: layer names, line types, text styles and title block.
Can you draft shop drawings?
Yes, to your engineer's design. See shop drawing drafting.
